Representation ID: 25585

Received: 01/03/2019

Respondent: Megan Waterman

Representation Summary:

Can you confirm what sort of dwelling this would be as the site notice is incredible vague?
The space is not big enough for 30 houses, so would this be flats?
Incredibly upset to see the trees have been cut down yesterday when it hasn't been given the go ahead, or has it?
I walk my dog around the field regularly and kids use it in the summer.
The only other option is to go over the park which isn't well lit or safe.
The field is the heart of the community and its loss would be a real shame.

Preferred Options Site Allocations and Policies (incorporating IP-One Area Action Plan) DPD Review

Representation ID: 25586

Received: 28/02/2019

Respondent: Suffollk Primary Care

Representation Summary:

The recreation area is used by the local community regularly. Chantry Park is too far away.

The area is used by local residents during the summer for picnics and socialising, when the local play bus visits, youth groups to play football and dog walkers.

There are parking problems in the area which would be exacerbated.

Difficulty accessing the site by lorries and workforce associated with construction. Also noise pollution.

The Open Space, Sport and Recreation Study identifies it for informal recreation and it should stay.

Instead of more development and congestion, money should be spent on play equipment.
